Unique Pathogen Peptidomes Facilitate Pathogen-Specific Selection and Specialization of MHC Alleles
A key component of pathogen-specific adaptive immunity in vertebrates is the presentation of pathogen-derived antigenic peptides by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. The excessive polymorphism observed at MHC genes is widely presumed to result from the need to recognize diverse patho...
